We did end up having our drinks outside on the terrace because it was waaaaay too hot and stuffy inside. Luckily, the terrace does have heaters which they did turn on.

The presentation of the coffee I had was really instagram-worthy, the barista had put some coffee milk art on it which was a nice extra. The coffee itself tasted amazing, I like the 'quarterback' and would recommend it. Every coffee comes with an American cookie which itself is pretty big for a free cookie. The people there are very friendly and their whole brand is very well thought out: from the names of their drinks to the presentation. One of my favourite places!

Recipe for the best cacao (hot chocolate) ever? -Gigantic…read morebowl-cup -A 1/4 cup of dark chocolate chips (single source fair-trade, people) -Oatley barista blend oat milk Lord have mercy on my soul. I've never had any cacao that was such a delight on my tongue. The place is small but well put together. They have a big table in the back of the cafe, and seating outside. There are fuzzy red blankets and pillows if you would like. The service is pleasant. They do speak English if you need it. My husband had a double espresso that knocked his socks off. He also had a banana bread that was delish. I had no expectations of gluten-free food, and only wanted cacao. Honestly, I didn't look. . They also have beer and cocktails, including local gin. I saw a sign for breakfast. They have long opening hours. That's super convenient. It's pretty popular, so expect to wait. Definitely expect to be delighted. We still can't locate those knocked-off socks
